Yea those 05 GLI's had that problem. It really sucks.

 

Just some fabricating left and it's ready to rock yo.

 

That is lookin pretty Sick!!

 

VW put some organic sh*t pads on those cars that were just s**t ... yeah they suck...

 

haha - love the drab Army green valve cover with stenciling...

 

I just bought and install the pads, it's the magic pads from girodisc. Used it for like 200 miles or less.

It goes on and off, does not squeak all the time. I can understand the noise made by the brake if we step on them too deep. But the squeak I'm talking here is different, it will go on when I step lightly on the break and again it does not happen all the time.

 

The noise is 100% normal

 

Lean smells like burning steel,

Rich smells like gasoline,

Chris you are grounded from posting tech.

 

 

Yeah, VW, Audi both use really hard brake pads and soft rotors so you have to replace both when they go, instead of normal manufacturers who do it the other way around.

 

ROFL, I was gonna post lean smells like burnt oil and antifreeze for the most part, but work had me side tracked... ya beat me Aaron hahaha

 

Some pads squeak, might just be compound, usually hard braking doesn't squeak at all. I wouldn't be concerned at all if light braking squeaks or squeals at all. I would try rebedding your brakes if you've bedded them at all in the first place. Most manufacturers have recommended bedding procedures, but if they don't, do 5 or 6 60 - 5 MPH hard braking stops, let them cool and retest your 'squeak' problems.

 

Right Aaron.. it smell like steel.. or very sour bitter something.. i cant explain.. i knwo what an rich is smell of gas..
